I didn't know G.M. ever made these. I wonder if they fit that much better than the repop's? Maybe somebody should buy them and make a pattern.

I just went out to my truck to see how mine look (they are exposted being the inner panel is removed) and they look very nice so I won't be getting these on eBay. But boy, what a deal if you needed them.

Brian do you know if any repop's ever had the hinge pocket indentation like these ones? To me that's a dead giveaway the cab's been repaired but to use these should be sweet for fit and originality for somebody. Thanks for the great posts by the way,I've learned alot from your expertise.

Thanks for your kind words Curt, I don't know what is available anymore than the complete side cowl that goes up TO that hinge area but not including it. I have to assume the pocket is available being that would be a spot for rust and damage from the hinge. Your cowl is welded to the top of the cowl right there above where the hinge bolts on and it would be a prime place for rust IF any muck got trapped there over the years above the hinge.
